Chapter 60 The Campus Genius Used as Cannon Fodder (Part 24) Sun Chuanhao...
Sun Chuanhao, in a playful jest, secretly picked up some meat and placed it on Ning Wenyuan's baking tray, as if he intended to snatch it back after Ning Wenyuan finished baking. Ning Wenyuan rolled his eyes at him but ultimately didn't throw it back.
Lin You felt that the plot was somewhat familiar, so she opened the system page and took a look at the plot that she had long forgotten.
"Shen Zechen, ask him what the girl's name is first." Lin You's tone suddenly became serious.
Shen Zechen immediately mentioned it casually, and Ning Wenyuan, without suspecting anything, replied casually while brushing seasoning onto the grilled meat, "Her name is Wen Yin. She's a very quiet girl and a junior at our school, majoring in history."
"Oh, that's indeed a pity." Shen Zechen replied casually, his lips twitching as he recalled the days when he was "hunted down".
Aside from her name, there's probably nothing about this person that's associated with the word "gentle and quiet"!
"What's there to regret? Regret that I couldn't be that time-traveling woman's backup boyfriend? I was a perfect match, both in the living room and the kitchen, and I trusted her completely, almost ruining my career. Then her man got jealous and threw me in a sack in the wilderness, where I almost froze to death?"
Lin You watched the plot, frowning and complaining. Compared to the clean and decisive blow to Shen Zechen, this lawyer suffered a lot of minor torments, and almost lost his life in the end.
Shen Zechen rejected the comparison, but sympathetically placed several pieces of fine beef on Ning Wenyuan's barbecue plate.
Ning Wenyuan glanced at him helplessly, then finished grilling the meat for him and put it back on his plate.
Ding Jie knew their appetites well, so he ordered just the right amount of meat. In the end, only two pieces of pork tenderloin were left, which Bei Bei devoured in one bite.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, it got completely dark. Ding Jie was the first to leave, and he and his girlfriend went for a walk hand in hand with their dog.
The remaining three single guys exchanged glances, had nothing to talk about, and went back to their dorms. Compared to Ding Jie, they all had a kind of pathetic feeling.
Lin You studied the plot for a while, but then wondered whether she should tell Shen Zechen.
The man the transmigrated woman found was a foreign Chinese man involved in organized crime, the heir to a certain powerful organization, and a well-known hacker on the internet.
He learned about Shen Zechen's identity through the "unintentional" revelation by the transmigrated woman, and then, following the clue of the stranger who came to visit Shen Zechen, he actually found his way to the Information Security Headquarters.
He orchestrated a deliberate accident that sent most of the people inside to the hospital, and took the opportunity to organize hackers from several countries to attack the domestic network, leaving only Xiao Wang leading a self-organized group of people to resist.
After working tirelessly for three days and three nights, Xiao Wang finally managed to wake up his superiors and colleagues, but he couldn't hold on any longer and had to go to the emergency room. Due to working too hard for too long, he suffered from serious aftereffects, and he would get headaches and blurred vision if he thought about anything.
After realizing his plan had failed, the young master pretended to back down at Wen Yin's request and posted online that he had given up the attack for his girlfriend.
The boss and colleagues hadn't recovered yet and didn't have the energy to deal with these guys, but they were still quite annoyed by them.
Lin You was also quite upset. She had only watched the part about Shen Zechen before going to rescue people, and she didn't have time to watch the specific plot about Wen Yin.
Later, when I had some free time, I glanced at the rest of the plot and realized it was just a super melodramatic romance novel, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Only now that I've finished reading it do I realize that the male lead in the story is actually this kind of person.
What if the female lead goes out late at night in the rain, gets soaked and mentally disoriented, and is mistaken for a scammer by the male lead in a luxury car, but ends up getting into his car? What if the two meet by chance on the street, and the male lead pins the female lead against a wall and pretends to slam her against it to escape his pursuit? What if the female lead is drugged in a bar, and the male lead saves her from a heartbreak and they have a one-night stand?
Lin You frowned and glanced at it twice, then stopped reading. Although there was nothing in the story that needed to be censored, it was clearly an 18+ story.
Shen Zechen hadn't heard her speak the whole way. After asking her several times, Lin You finally confessed. Anyway, this kind of plot that didn't involve Shen Zechen wasn't within the scope of the system's confidentiality.
Then, they successfully blocked Shen Zechen.
Compared to the female lead, Wen Yin, who has mental issues, this male lead is a pure villain. Unfortunately, his name wasn't mentioned in the plot, and he wasn't one of their acquaintances, so it's really hard to find him right now.
Lin You was digging into the plot to find clues, while Shen Zechen turned on his computer and his fingers flew across the keyboard, almost leaving afterimages.
Since the culprit can't be found, let's vent our anger on the underlings first. He knows without a doubt who the culprits are.
In just half an hour, he had routed the enemy. Seeing that it was still early, Shen Zechen connected to his work computer and took a look around the department.
He frowned as he looked at Wang Aimin's workload and work speed; it seemed he would be working overtime until two or three in the morning again.
As his fingers tapped the keyboard again, Wang Aimin, who was working on something, quickly realized that his computer had been taken over again and his work had been completed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After this session, T didn't greet me with a familiar smile, but instead said four big words: "Off work! Time to sleep!"
Xiao Wang immediately became smug, because this was a unique act of care and attention from the big shot Shen Zechen!
After bragging to my colleagues who were still working overtime, I almost got ganged up on before finally packing up to leave work.
As I passed by my colleague next door, I saw a familiar scene on his monitor. In no time, my colleague's work was also finished.
The same four large characters were hung up, indicating that he wasn't the only one. Little Wang, thick-skinned as ever, waved his hand without the slightest embarrassment:
"Comrade Shen cares about two people in total, and I am one of them. Our relationship is quite special."
Then, on another colleague's computer, the familiar screen appeared again.
Everyone watched in disbelief as Shen Zechen swept away all the work in just one hour, even urging the boss in the next office to go and rest.
The boss, carrying his thermos, originally intended to show off, but upon entering, he discovered that Shen Zechen had treated everyone equally this time.
By doing everything in her power, she managed to get all the members of the information department to leave work three or four hours early. The kid was really thoughtful today.
Swallowing back the boast that almost escaped his lips, the boss waved his hand and said, "Except for the staff on duty today, everyone else can go back to sleep. Don't let our little Shen's concern go to waste."
While Wang Aimin was still comforting himself, at least he was the first person to receive care, a colleague suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Don't think about it. Comrade Shen clearly helped in order. You were the first one because you happened to be in the corner."
Wang Aimin: ………
That was a good way to comfort you, but you don't need to do that next time!
Seeing Wang Aimin's obviously stiff expression, a group of people patted him on the shoulder one by one to comfort him, but they couldn't hide the gloating on their faces.
Shen Zechen tinkered with his computer for most of the night before the frustration caused by the plot finally subsided.
During the time he was dominating weaker opponents and helping others, Lin You endured her discomfort and read through the plot in detail, managing to piece together some information from the details.
The male protagonist in that storyline often drives a car that is understated yet luxurious, but which is obviously expensive and pretentious.
He was also carrying a watch that looked very valuable, supposedly a limited edition, one of only three in the world, and was set with a ring of diamonds.
He often wears a custom-made, unique perfume that leaves a lasting impression and makes him seem very tasteful.
He would be hunted down by a bunch of enemies in the city, and despite having a group of subordinates, he would go out alone, only to be wounded and hide in a shopping mall with a large flow of people.
He has a blank expression, often has sharp eyes, is not mentally ill, loves to spout classic domineering CEO lines from old Mary Sue novels, and lacks even the most basic moral and legal awareness.
He was taller than Gu Jin, had a better physique, was more handsome, and was also richer. (This is a summary of Wen Yin's description)
Looking at the messy information, Shen Zechen finally gave up on the idea of searching for the person himself. Anyway, he was fine, and Wen Yin, who had transmigrated into the book, was gone. This male lead would never be able to get close to him.
Having figured things out, Shen Zechen calmly washed up and went to sleep. Lin You studied the plot for a while longer but couldn't find any other clues, so she had to give up the idea of finding people through the plot.
She had been busy until midnight, so Shen Zechen gave her a day off. Lin You, who was used to studying at night, felt a little uneasy after having some free time.
Lin You looked at the clothes she was wearing, which were made by Chu's mother herself. Suddenly, she turned around and changed into a set of clothes that Shen Zechen had customized for her.
When Shen Zechen heard Lin You proudly boast that the Chu family had made a lot of clothes for her, he bought her a lot of clothes when he was decorating her room.
Lin You also heard him mutter to himself that although he couldn't make clothes, the clothes he bought were all very beautiful, and he had professional designers help him put together the outfits.
She chose a light blue oatmeal-patterned sweatshirt, paired with a beige cable-knit cardigan, and gray-blue wide-leg jeans rolled up to her calves. A delicate butterfly brooch was pinned to her chest, with tiny, colorful gemstones scattered on the butterfly's wings, dazzling and eye-catching.
Her elaborate bun was replaced with a high ponytail, adorned with a light blue mother-of-pearl petal hair clip that matched the color of her sweatshirt. On her wrist was a string of round moonstone beads that shimmered with a deep blue luster under the moonlight.
Lin You admired her outfit with satisfaction, then sat on the balcony railing, resting her chin on her hand, gazing at the sky in a daze.
The city was brightly lit at night, but the night sky was not as clear and bright as Chu Nanfeng's. Only a few stars could be seen, and the moon seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist.
As Lin You was counting the few stars she could find, she suddenly saw dark clouds rapidly gathering, covering most of the sky, and large raindrops quickly falling.
Then a strong wind picked up, howling through the city, causing the trees along the streets to sway violently, and you could vaguely see some of the neighbors' clothes being blown into the air.
Lin You hurriedly went back inside. The semi-open balcony where she had been squatting was quickly soaked. Fortunately, Shen Zechen didn't have any clothes hanging outside, so she didn't need to wake him up to bring them in.
The sudden storm came abruptly, and it was late at night. Lin You suddenly thought of Wen Yin's first encounter with that young master.
She didn't care about the rain anymore and hurriedly headed to a nearby shopping mall with an underground parking garage. Anyway, she was invisible, so the rain wouldn't get her wet.
Judging from Wen Yin's previous attire and spending habits, her family must be wealthy, but her economic status is definitely far below that of the male protagonist. The place where the two met by chance is unlikely to be a parking lot in a residential area.
Lin You checked three underground parking lots in a row, running around for more than an hour, and didn't encounter anything unusual until the wind and rain stopped.
Just when Lin You thought she was overthinking it and that it was just an ordinary autumn rain, someone actually encountered something bizarre in the underground parking lot of the office building not far away.
Fang Yue felt incredibly unlucky. The new intern had made a mistake with the data, which happened to be the part she was responsible for, forcing her to work overtime to fix it.
Fortunately, she received double overtime pay, which soothed her anxious mood. Moreover, although her boss had gone home to sleep, he thoughtfully ordered her a late-night snack.
When Fang Yue finally finished her work, she stretched wearily and breathed a long sigh of relief. It was already past 11 p.m., and the takeout had just arrived. It was her favorite beef soup.
The steaming beef soup was topped with a layer of vibrant green garlic sprouts and cilantro. Large chunks of beef took up almost half of the lunchbox. The soup didn't contain the glass noodles she disliked; instead, it was filled with shredded tofu and enoki mushrooms.
Upon opening the takeout box, a rich aroma instantly filled the air. The beef had distinct muscle fibers, was tender and juicy, and Fang Yue couldn't help but swallow. Looking at the takeout order, she saw that the owner had specially added an extra twenty yuan worth of beef for her.
The thoughtful owner, who clearly remembered all her preferences and made detailed notes that she didn't want vermicelli or chili peppers, and even added extra beef, forgot to change her eco-friendly request for no cutlery. Fang Yue searched through the bag before realizing that the store hadn't brought chopsticks for her.
I searched the office and found nothing but a small, delicate coffee spoon, barely bigger than an ear pick, which I usually use to hold my lady's coffee.
Fortunately, her home wasn't far from the company, and she could walk back in ten minutes. Fang Yue put the lid back on the beef soup, put it in the insulated bag provided by the vendor, and tied it up. It would definitely still be piping hot when she got home.
But when she was carrying the takeout downstairs, she suddenly encountered an elevator malfunction. The elevator suddenly plummeted as it was about to reach the first floor, and fell directly to the basement.
In a flash, Fang Yue reacted quickly by clutching the takeout bag to her chest. She protected the beef soup well, not spilling a single drop. However, she stumbled and broke the heel of her high heel.
The elevator doors opened automatically without any further incident, but the place where it fell was more than half a meter above the ground. Fang Yue carefully placed the takeout bag on the elevator door before struggling to take off her high heels and climb up.
Then he took out his phone and called the property management to explain the elevator situation he had encountered.
The uncle on duty at the property management office quickly arrived and not only compensated her for the cost of the shoes, but also brought her a brand-new pair of woolen slippers that his wife had knitted by hand, to help her out in the short term.
When the older man cautiously asked her if she wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up, Fang Yue moved her hands and feet to make sure there was no problem, and then waved her hand to indicate that she didn't need to.
"I'm not hurt. You should still have the elevator checked. Luckily, I fell from the first floor, otherwise there would have been no problem."
The woolen slippers are soft and warm, and very comfortable to wear. Although they are a bit big, they do not affect walking.
After thanking him, Fang Yue planned to wash the shoes when she got home and return them to the uncle another day, since they were made by his wife and had a special meaning.
But sometimes when you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can be a problem. Fang Yue had only walked a few dozen meters out of the underground parking garage when the weather, which had been clear and sunny, suddenly started pouring rain. She was wearing slippers and couldn't run fast, so she got soaked to the bone.
Woolen slippers are shoes worn at home, and their anti-slip effect is generally poor. Fang Yue was walking carefully on the side of the road, and she was walking fine until a car suddenly rushed out from behind her and grazed her. She slipped and fell to the ground with a thud.
The beef soup, which had gone through countless hardships with her and remained perfectly protected, ultimately couldn't hold on until the end. The takeout box was thrown out, rolled twice on the ground, and finally broke, scattering its rich aroma all over the ground in the rain.
Fang Yue almost burst into tears when she saw the large chunks of beef spilled on the ground. She had been drinking beef soup for so long, but she had never been willing to add so much meat!
I should have just eaten it with a coffee spoon in the office before going home!
Realizing he had hit someone, the driver quickly slammed on the brakes. Nangong Yao, in the passenger seat, couldn't help but sway, his brows immediately furrowing. He glared at the driver with a cold face and urged him to keep going.
The driver said with a wry smile, "Young master, the security here is a bit different from where we are. If we cause an accident and flee the scene, and the woman calls the police, we'll be in trouble with the cops. I'm not afraid of going to jail for you, but it wouldn't be good if it interfered with your business."
"Then just get rid of her!" Before the driver could stop him, Nangong Yao sneered and nimbly opened the car door and got out.
Fang Yue was trying to stand up when a sharp pain shot through her knee, making her turn pale. She wiped the rain off her face haphazardly and touched her small bag. Luckily, her phone hadn't fallen.
The car door opened, and a pair of gleaming, obviously expensive leather shoes stepped into the rain. A pair of long, slender legs were encased in crisp suit trousers. Fang Yue couldn't help but look up. The perpetrator was quite presentable.
Nangong Yao originally intended to resolve this troublesome matter, but when he saw Fang Yue lying on the ground, soaking wet and disheveled, with a pitiful little face and watery eyes like a frightened deer, his heart suddenly skipped a beat for no reason.
He paused in his motion to draw his gun, stared at Fang Yue for a long time, and then coldly said, "Woman, get in the car!"
Fang Yue frowned as she looked at him. Although it was only four words, the commanding tone and the overwhelming greasiness made her want to complain. What kind of ancient domineering CEO quotes were these? Did he escape from a mental hospital?
Seeing that she didn't move, Nangong Yao took a few more steps forward and stood a step away from Fang Yue.
Fang Yue quietly reached for her phone and pressed the emergency call button. Sensing the call connect, she immediately shouted, "Don't come any closer! Your car came out of the parking lot without its lights on. You hit someone and now you're planning to kidnap them?!"
"This is the first time I've been rejected by a woman. Very well, you've successfully caught my attention!" Nangong Yao's tone was icy as he reached out to grab Fang Yue's arm.
